DVD review: The Veil (1958)

Good evening. Tonight I'm going to tell you another strange and unusual story of the unexplainable...

Predating the thematically similar Twilight Zone by almost a year, this long-lost TV anthology show finally reaches UK shores five years after the US release.

Presented by, and starring, Boris Karloff this collection of ten curious 25-minute tales of the supernatural were never broadcast, though they finally saw the light of day in the 1990s. This delayed debut unfortunately works against the rather quaint stylings of the show, as the stories on offer pale alongside the witty and ingenious work of Rod Serling and his televisual descendents.

Standing in front of an implausibly large open fire, Karloff introduces each yarn as being based on a true story and drawn from "his research". Utter bollocks, of course, but there's no small amount of charm in seeing such a hoary old gimmick being delivered with a straight face by the lilting tones of Boris.
